The rest of the week went by quickly.

School helps me to distract myself from my own thoughts. It's fun, especially chemistry. Zack managed to get a punch everyday.

'He's the reason school's fun, right?' The voice said.
'No, shut up. Yuck.'

All in all, I'm feeling better. I'm almost back to my older self. But still almost everything triggers me, but I've learnt to hide it well.

I was packing my stuff for the week at the other mansion.

"Evelina, we have to leave. How long?" Will shouted from downstairs.

"Coming." I shouted back.

I went downstairs with my suitcase in Olivers hands. I had my other smaller bag in one hand and Luca's hoverboard in other.

I managed to persuade Elonzo to let me have just two of the bodyguards.

So, Oliver and Henry are guarding me now.

They are very helpful and polite. We get along well. They crack lame jokes sometimes. That makes me laugh.

"How far is it?" I asked walking towards the garage door.

"An hour by car." Will said.
I nodded.

We went out to see a limo parked in the driveway.

The music started blaring. It was fun.

We were talking and eating. The whole car ride was enjoyable.

I looked outside when we started pulling into a driveway. It was a huge mansion, even bigger than ours.

"Wow." I said.
"Yeah, its the party mansion. We come to stay here often." Tyler told me.

We got out of our cars.

"There's just one room that gives a full view of the lake and mountains behind the house. It has a huge balcony." Will said and winked at me.

'I'll get it.'

Suddenly, all the boys started running to the house.

"That's cheating." I shouted as I started running too.

I managed to catch up with them.

'I don't even know where my destination is.'

Asher was ahead of all of us.

I was just behind him now.

'I'll follow him to the room and push him aside and lock the door.'

But as soon as he opened the door to a room, I stumbled. When I regained my balance, he was already in and the door was locked.

I knocked.

"Hey Asher! Open the door." I shouted.

"Nope." Came his reply.

"Just let me see the room." I whined.

"No."

'Let's play the sister card.'

"I'm your sister." I said frustrated.

"That's the reason, I'm not letting you in. Sisters are cunning." He said.

I smirked.

"Now that you called me cunning, its time to use the final plan." I said, smirking.

"And what's that?" He mocked, chuckling slightly at the end.

"GRANDPA." I shouted at the top of my lungs.
